The veteran singer referred to the former Anambra governor as Nigeria’s version of Jesus for celebrating his 62nd birthday with thousands of displaced persons.

Charles Oputa, the maverick singer, who is popularly known as Charly Boy, has made a new assertion.

He asserted that the Labour Party, LP, presidential candidate, Peter Obi in the 2023 election is Nigeria’s “Jesus on earth.”

The veteran singer referred to the former Anambra governor as Nigeria’s version of Jesus for celebrating his 62nd birthday with thousands of displaced persons in different IDP camps in Mangu Local Government Area of Plateau State, on Thursday.

He hailed Obi for donating “cheques and trucks of food items” to the IDPs.

Sharing photos from the presentation via his Twitter handle on Friday, Charly Boy wrote, “Yesterday, His Excellency Peter Gregory Obi celebrated his birthday with over 18,000 displaced persons in different IDP camps in Mangu Local Government Area of Plateau state, He handed cheques and truck of food items to them and assured them of a new Nigeria.

“I don tell una say Peter na my own Jesus on earth, no be like some great grandfather wey suppose go tanda for der village dey still measure Prik with small children.
